Established in 1984, the Maya Centre is a community-based charity in Islington providing free, culturally sensitive counselling, group work and complementary therapies.
We support women on low incomes whose mental health have been affected by a range of experiences including depression and anxiety, violence against women and girls, inequality, discrimination and racism.
We work together to give women from different cultural and language backgrounds more voice, choice and control over their wellbeing and life decisions.
We are delighted to have received a very special message from our Patron, Siobhán McSweeney, on International Women’s Day 2025. Siobhán has supported the Maya Centre since 2019 and has personally raised over £35,000 that directly contributed to the work we do here and allowed us to reach more women who were able to access our services and support.
As you can see from her message, she has a profound understanding of the work we strive to do and feels a real connection to our work. Our staff and clients are so grateful to have her continued input and inspiration. Thanks Siobhán, XXX
Our intracultural team speak 13 different languages, meaning that women can access therapy in their own language.
